Albeit a very limited photo - here’s my two cents worth:

White Dial - same lume issues as PF JJF Dial far better
Blue Dial - not much different to PF and would predict PF is thicker therefore with Keylogs datewheel mod, there’s no point in buying.
Black Dial - fantasy watch so not worthy of a comment.

Very disappointing.....

Regarding blue dial, did you mean the MK is going to be thicker?

MK does not seem to have the severe misalignment problems that pf has, i will definitely buy it as it comes out

The thickness of the MK nautilus is 9.22mm.

I am OP of this thread and I did not bump this thread earlier because I was told by some dealer close to the factories that this release would be a disappointment for PP fans.

Thank you for the response, and that's truly disappointing to here. I hope that the rumors are not true.

The one on the right is not black dial, it’s blue dial. There are different gen blue colour dials on the market, I’ve seen this colour of gen in person, so it does exist.

they are known for making

- white dials
- blue dials
- grey/black dials

I don't think they will orientate on different gen batches... They think the grey dial that comes only on a leather strap and made out of white gold is also a part of the 5711 steel sports line with bracelet. And that was already wrong with PF

Well hope not, it would make no sense to update this version at all if so

Either way the dial on the right is a dial I’ve never seen before and from a google still can’t see.

Such a disappointment from MK, PF still leading in my book. Yes I know about the alignment issues but a quick removal of the sticky tape and manual realign/glue, it’s good to go.

Waiting for the date wheel mod....

I understand what you mean and agree!

I will complete the DWO file the next days to make this thing finally happen and available.

Thanks to you and Keylog74 mate, this sub-forum will combust when it's released!

Someone posted calipers on the new mk in the other thread and it confirmed 9.22mm thickness
